Problem overview

Some Toyota Highlander owners report experiencing issues with their right front tire requiring weekly air additions, which may be linked to a leaking air conditioning system. These leaks can stem from damaged hoses, loose connections, or faulty condensers, leading to a gradual loss of refrigerant pressure. Diagnosing the leak can be facilitated by injecting fluorescent dye into the AC system, allowing the source of the leak to be identified under UV light. It is recommended that a professional inspect and repair any detected leaks to prevent further damage, as repair costs can range from $600 to $2,000 depending on the severity of the issue. Additionally, owners are advised to address significant leaks promptly and maintain regular checks on the AC system to avoid future problems.
